Okay, thanks for pointing that out. But how did TLM know that Tory would be walking alone that day?
I'm not sure I would take CM's word on that. Also, if that was so, wouldn't defense have called CM to testify about that?

With all due respect Ardy, how do you think the reasons for the abduction would be supportive of either side's assertion?
An abduction is an abduction, regardless of the reason. If I were to abduct a minor simply because I was a weirdo who loved kids or wanted a playmate for my pet rabbit, it doesn't matter. It is the established fact that a child was taken without permission from the parent that constitutes the abduction, not the reasons for it.
MOO
thanks flossie for your post ...
from what i read, it sounds like CM was upset with TM for not agreeing to breed their dogs, and perhaps so upset that TM didn't go back to CM's house again. is it possible that TLM was privy to either this discussion or the grudge her mother felt towards TM?
Hi there, jmo, I think it would establish who drove the event so to speak. JMO
I think there is alot CM could tell us.:moo:
Hope it's ok to post longer portion of article, all I can find:
SUSPECT ACTED OUT OF REVENGE: TORI'S MOM
Charles Lewis and Adrian Humphreys, National Post
Published: Saturday, May 23, 2009
Terri-Lynne McClintic turned Michael Rafferty in to police -- telling officers about the abduction and murder of Victoria "Tori" Stafford -- only after she learned he was dating another woman while she was in jail, said the dead girl's mother.
"From what I am told, and I don't know if it stands true or not, but the only reason that she confessed was that she found out he had found another girlfriend out here and that was pretty much her way of getting back," Tara McDonald said.

This link from May 2009 and the other link posted a few posts ago, also from the same month, were both written before anyone admitted to drug use, just saying. We later found out who was addicted to oxy and who was dealing, so who knows if these quoted stories were a cover for any type of drug connection.
Who do you mean by "someone"? TM?Two possibilities and these are just guesses:
(2) TLM spoke to "someone" earlier that day and was told Tori would be alone
MOO!

Why would "someone" tell TLM, a veritable stranger, save for two chance drug related meetings, that Tori was going to walk home alone?
Tori never walked home alone: her brother or grandma dealt with that. Besides, no one knew that she was going to be walking home alone since TM assumed her brother was going to walk with her, and he did go back to find her, it was just too late.

When she did not return home from Oliver Stephens school with her brother, mom and her family began a frantic and futile search before going to the police about 6 p.m.

This was supposed to be the first time Tori and her brother were walking home from school alone.
No one knew Tori was going to walk home alone because she wasn't supposed to.

actually if memory serves me, TM had already given an interview in her backyard and admitted to using oxy....:moo: before these two were arrested..
JMO if it happened, it was not TM that told anyone. JMO
(McDonald had moved into a house at Frances St. a week before. April 8 2009 was the first day Tori would be allowed to walk home alone from school.)
“Did your mother regularly pick them (Daryn and Tori) up from school,” asked Derstine.
“Yes.”
“Whose idea was it that they would walk home (that day)?
“Mine.”
Except for her mother and boyfriend, McDonald testified that no one knew that Tori was allowed to walk home alone that day.
